Pick a Brick duplicates

[Cyberfounder]

I regularly buy from pick a brick and lately I have noticed that there are duplicates of some items on the website, like the Bunny/Rabbit you can see in the image below. One is out of stock while the other is not, the only difference is the ID code. I have seen this with other pieces like the Carrot/Club or even a hips and legs piece. Is there any noticeable difference that I’m missing here? If I put either number in bricklink, it shows me the same item.

A long time ago, I was on the phone with LEGO to make an order and asked about this and they told me it's because when they change the number (for any number of reasons) they are truly sold out of that item and only have the new one.

Oh, I see. Thank you for clearing that up.

It appears one is a "Bestseller" model and held in one warehouse more local to your location. The other, non-bestseller, would come from the main warehouse in Denmark.
